About

Currently celebrating 25 years of bringing dance to Los Angeles, MNR Dance Factory (#MNRDF) is “Where Dancers Grow Up.” Founder, owner, and artistic director Roni Blak meticulously curated this unique place in Brentwood where kids grow, thrive, and connect through the art of dance and movement. The #MNRDF staff includes supportive and professional instructors who provide dance instruction to children of all ages and experience levels.

WHAT MAKES #MNRDF DIFFERENT#MNRDF is a studio specifically designed for dance. Students will learn the foundation, performance, practice, and art of dance in a nurturing setting that will become their second home. Faculty is meticulously chosen for their professional skills and teaching abilities. Instructors such as Annie Guest, have experience working with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other motor/developmental disorders, making dance accessible to all.

THE BENEFITS OF DANCE FOR CHILDRENDance has physical, social, cognitive, and emotional benefits for children. They learn body awareness, balance, and coordination. It develops muscle strength and encourages good posture. Children who dance are more socially aware. Through dance, they learn how to cooperate, share, interact with others, and communicate. Most importantly, exposure to proper dance instruction helps build confidence in children.

WHERE DANCERS GROW UP#MNRDF is multi-generational - parents return with their own children to receive the same caliber of instruction they experienced. You may recognize some names of #MNRDF Alum who started out with us!
